The Rats will be out in force. I'd be astounded if I'm wrong about this.See also, from www.mercurynews.com:
...Bush has devoted much of his public time this week to speeches on his initiative, culminating in the Cisco appearance, which will include a panel discussion with Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, Cisco CEO John Chambers, a San Jose State University student and education leaders focused on training a more skilled workforce.When Air Force One touches down at Moffett Field early Friday afternoon, it will mark the president's fourth visit to Silicon Valley, though he has made it to San Jose only once before, in 2002. He also is making a stop at Stanford University's Hoover Institution, home to many of his early advisers. None of Friday's events are open to the public...

...But anti-war protesters are planning to carpool from as far away as San Francisco to meet the president's motorcade at Cisco and another protest is planned at Stanford University. An immigrant rights news conference, originally set for Thursday in downtown San Jose, was moved to today, in front of Cisco headquarters.
San Jose is the first stop on a four-day visit to California, Bush's longest yet as president. After Cisco, he will travel by a Marine One helicopter to a reception organized by former Secretary of State George Shultz at Stanford University's Hoover Institution. Several Hoover fellows have been key economic advisers, and it was through Hoover that the president was introduced to Condoleezza Rice, his current secretary of state. He then will helicopter to St. Helena, where he will spend the night before heading to Sacramento on Saturday to tout fuel-cell technology.
Then he moves to Southern California to visit with military families Sunday and give a speech on immigration reform Monday.

Dear Fellow Republicans,
As you have probably heard, President Bush is coming to Napa County, very near to us!
As you have also probably heard, there are going to be many counter demonstrators out to harass him.
The Napa County Republican Party has organized a couple of rallies to show our opposition to his critics and to show our support for President Bush.
We received the following message from The Napa County Republicans:
Sonoma County Republican PartyPresident Bush is coming to Napa Valley this Friday evening! He will be staying at Meadowood Resort on Friday and leaving Saturday a.m. This is an exciting time to come out and show support for our president.
Supporters will be meeting at the intersection of DeerPark and Silverado Trail. Please park on Deer Park west of Silverado Trail. There is a fruit stand on that corner. We will meet Friday, starting at 4p.m.- 7 p.m.
We will be back there Saturday from 8 a.m.-10 a.m. (pray for sunshine). Please come out wearing red and white or blue. Please make supportive signs, come and have fun!
There will be protesters located about 1 mile away near the entrance to Meadowood. I have it on good word that there could be 2000-5000 protesters most wearing black - joining hands in a life chain in protest. We can join hands in support of our president! Please tell as many people as you can and come!
Blessings,
Debbie Dornaus
